[U-Boot-Users] TFTP usage at Linux shell prompt

Hi,
I am using JFFS2 file system for running the Linux on incaip board and would like to download a file from another host using TFTP.The following are the various commands and the respective outputs I have obtained when trying to download the file.
1.command: "#tftp 192.168.0.215"
output message: BusyBox v1.00 (2007.11.20-05:01+0000) multi-call binary
Usage: tftp [OPTION]... HOST [PORT]
2.command: "# tftp -m binary 192.168.0.215"
output message: "tftp: illegal option -- m BusyBox v1.00 (2007.11.20-05:01+0000) multi-call binary"
3.command: "tftp v 192.168.0.215"
output message:
"BusyBox v1.00 (2007.11.20-05:01+0000) multi-call binary
Usage: tftp [OPTION]... HOST [PORT]"
Is the format of the commands valid, what are the list of options that could be given under OPTION field. Kindly, give me some pointers to proceed in solving this issue.
Thank You, Verma.

After entering "busybox tftp" into google my first hit was http://www.busybox.net/lists/busybox/2003-February/007972.html which describes the tftp options. and which gives this tip
# ./busybox tftp --help BusyBox v0.61.pre (2003.02.04-12:10+0000) multi-call binary
Usage: tftp [OPTION]... HOST [PORT]
Transfers a file from/to a tftp server using "octet" mode.
Options: -l FILE Local FILE. -r FILE Remote FILE. -g Get file. -p Put file.
Please consider also looking at the busybox homepage http://www.busybox.net/
This commonly called RTFM (Read the fucking manual)
Best regards
